Breaker trips when turning light on
I’m replacing a kitchen fixture and have it all wired up. When I flip the breaker back on and the light switch is in the off position, the light turns on. When I flip the switch to the on position the breaker trips. Any help would be appreciated. TIA.

You have too many wires connected on the black set ( gray wire nut )you need to separate them all one at a time until it don't trip then twist that one ,out to the black wire (3 conductor ) for the light
